The growth of fascism in Aotearoa is linked to a transnational context that has shapeshifted during the pandemic, instigating a revival of more overt forms of anti-Māori and anti-Asian racism. In recent years, Canadian and UK white supremacist and transphobic figures have visited to spread fascist ideologies, only to be de-platformed by Indigenous and POC coalitional organizing. At the same time, much like in other settler colonial contexts, there has been an absence of political discourse that has been able to name and make sense of fascist and white supremacist violence.

From racist tweets to rising hate crimes, the media‘s anti-China propaganda has created a climate of aggression. Two weeks ago, a man drove a car into the Chinese consulate in San Francisco, yelling “Where‘s the CCP?” Arab Americans have been targeted during the Persian Gulf War, the War on Terror, and U.S.-backed atrocities in Palestine. It‘s no surprise that Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are in the crosshairs of white supremacy as the U.S. targets China.

That neither WeChat nor TikTok nor Kaspersky has been found guilty of snooping or "stealing" personal information or intruding on the privacy of users, which apps made by Western companies are often found doing, is of least concern to Canada.

During the process, the Chinese People's Liberation Army organized naval and air forces to identify and verify their purpose in accordance with the law, and repeatedly called out warnings, but the Canadian helicopters not only refused to respond, but also made provocative actions such as flying at extremely low altitude.
